It's not a virus, firewall, or plugin issue. I've tried malware scans, reinstalling the application, and putting the window in "Safe Mode" and nothing worked. The other browsers are working fine, it's just Firefox for some reason that isn't working. Norton is downloaded on my computer, I don't know if that makes a difference, and I've done a ton of troubleshooting already. I have Windows 8 installed.
